...ahead of the game. Howard Keith Adams Darling is continuing the family tradition of attending West Point, a tradition which the elder Darling perhaps didn't follow because of a professed lack of interest in athletics.

Sonora's golden history is well preserved. A restored gold-rush town at the Columbia State Historic Park has a blacksmith shop, saloon and gold mine. Other historical attractions include the Tuolumne County Museum, located in a 100-year-old jail, and Railtown 1897, in nearby Jamestown, where visitors can ride on the Sierra Railroad and tour a railroad museum.
